I'd like to be able to track things like distance ran, calories burned etc. But I don't want any personal data being sent to external servers.

Garmin is #1 sports watch. Disable internet connection of your phone if you don't want to send your tracking information. After first tune any garmin watch can live without your phone, they don't have inner sim, so your data will always be on your wrist

Do you use it in this way? Are you able to collect and analyze your data without connecting to Garmin?

I don't cause I'm not afraid to upload my tracking data and analizyit in on PC. However you can check everything on your watch especially on the latest models

Good question! I love my Garmin but it knows too much. And I'm afraid it would totally brick if Garmin goes away someday.

Apple Watch health data stays offline if you turn icloud off. No data send to Apple.
You can even keep it private& secure on icloud if you turn on "Advanced Data Protection for iCloud" and you have to remember a 28 char password.
